27-year-old troubled Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy has freed on bail ahead of his trial on rape charges which were leveled against him at the Chester Crown Court in the UK.
The French international footballer who has been accused of a series of serious s3x offenses against young women, was freed after a bail hearing at Chester Crown Court on Friday.
Judge Thompson granted Benjamin Mendy bail until January 24, the date of his next court hearing.

The full bail conditions were not given in open court, but Mendy was told he must live at his home address, not to contact complainants and surrender his passport by midnight on Friday.
The development came days after the footballer was moved to a notorious maximum-security jail ‘for his own protection’ as he awaits trial for rape allegations.
Reports say Mendy was switched to the notorious HMP Prison Manchester, commonly referred to as Strangeways, on December 23, 2021.
